Can I Write Agreement of Sale for Family Property Transfer?

My son wishes to buy my old house in Delaware County PA; he currently resides in house with his GF. They are planning to marry after home purchase, both are very trustworthy.

The home value is $350,000, and I plan to give gift of equity, $35,000, maybe little more. Leaving $315,000. I owe $54,000 on Mortgage. Expected Proceeds $261,000, all for down-payment on our new home.

They have a huge down-payment of $85,000 ready. So, $230,000 remains for Mortgage.

My son, Industrial Mechanic, is earning $100,000/yr, with massive OT and 3rd Shift with FICO 685 per Discover. The GF is making $17/hr, but has 770 FICO on Discover. Hopefully, no issues getting decent Mortgage.

This home sale is critical for my wife and I, since we are building a ranch home in Southern Delaware, expected completion April 1st, 2026.

My son wants Close Date December 30th, 2025. He needs Agreement of Sale ASAP to start applying for Mortgages today. I recommended applying to 4 different mortgage companies, credit union or broker. I was told 4 max since more will lower credit score...

Hopefully no tax issues holding proceeds from sale for our down-payment on our new home...

Thanks in advance for any advice. Sorry for Long Post...

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
